Augrented Insights Report for 381 Pennsylvania Avenue

The 16-unit, 4-story New Law tenement building at 381 Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York, owned by Israel Cohen and constructed in 1930, has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent years. During 2024, the building faced several significant problems, including rodent infestations in multiple apartments (notably in 1C and 4B), an August inspection in apartment 3A revealing multiple violations including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and recurring electrical issues.

The property underwent several Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) inspections between September 2024 and May 2025, resulting in both violations and closed complaints, though some inspections were unable to be completed. Notable violations included problems with the intercom system, window frames, and various paint/plaster issues. The building has documented persistent rodent activity, with multiple baiting operations conducted between December 2022 and May 2023, and one compliance inspection showing rat activity in 2023.

There have been multiple HPD complaints regarding pest-related issues, including unsanitary conditions, though the most recent bedbug reports from 2020-2024 show zero infestation cases. Other maintenance issues identified in 2024-2025 included problems with flooring, cabinets, and an illegal conversion complaint from January 2024, though the inspector was unable to gain access during the inspection. While some of the violations have been closed, including those related to electrical outlets and various surfaces, others remain open or were only recently addressed, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
